COMPLIANCE AGREEMENT STIPULATION SHEET BOXWOOD BLIGHT CLEANLINESS PROGRAMCompliance Agreement • January 15th, 2019
Boxwood Blight is caused by two fungal pathogens, Calonectria pseudonaviculata (syn. = Cylindrocladium pseudonaviculatum) and C. henricotiae. The known hosts of Boxwood Blight are boxwood (Buxus spp.), sweetbox (Sarcococca spp.) and pachysandra (Pachysandra terminalis). Two states, Pennsylvania and Tennessee, have specific exterior quarantines regulating the movement of Boxwood Blight hosts into those states. Participation in the Boxwood Blight Cleanliness program is one of the conditions of being able to ship host species to PA & TN. Program participants agree to grow species and cultivars of Boxwood Blight host plants according to best management practices designed to prevent the introduction and minimize the risk of spreading Boxwood Blight. This agreement does not preclude the inspection, sampling, and testing of plants by the destination state department of agriculture or similar authority and rejection as a result of any positive finds.
